CASTING ANNOUNCED FOR 'THE SNOW QUEEN' AT PARK THEATRE

The show will run from 4 December 2019 – 4 January 2020


Casting has been confirmed for Park Theatre’s festive family adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic: The Snow Queen

Focusing on the origins of the Queen who brings endless winter, the cast includes: Frances Marshall as the titular role, Ayesha Casely-Hayford as Gerda, Esmonde Cole as Cei/Fred, Sarah-Louise Young as Grandmother/Mrs D/Lily, Justin Brett as Mr Goodman/Daffodil/Bae The Reindeer, Paula James as Elisa/Mrs Flynn/Snowdrop/Princess Frderica and Matt Cavendish as John/Bindweed/Robber Queen. The production is adapted by Charles Way and directed by Abigail Anderson, with a national press night on Friday 6 December, 7pm.

Based on the original 1844 story by the renowned fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen, this story follows Gerda as she goes on an epic quest through the seasons to save her best friend Cei before she loses him to endless winter. With the help of bickering flowers, overworked teachers, confused princes and princesses, a talking reindeer and, of course, snowball fights, the pair just might be ready to grow up after all.
